So, i want ink done.
But, the problem is what to get first, what would look better, what color combos, oh the choices!
Reading the story behind the Koi Fish really made me inspired to get that, maybe on the leg, but im thinking more upper arm for that. The story behind the KoiFish:
First, koi fish tattoos depicting the animal swimming upstream may represent strength during trying times. It takes a lot to be able to go against the tide of fate if life has stacked the odds up against you. Koi fish tattoos often represent victory despite terrible adversity: courageous triumph over a struggle.
Second, and perhaps more influenced by Western thought (the Japanese had and have a very close-knit society), is the koi fish tattoo for someone who is very independent. Proudly going against the grain, with little care for the opinions of others and society, a koi fish tattoo depicting the animal swimming through a tumultuous torrent is a powerful and personal image.
My second is of a drawing i did, (dont have it uploaded or i would show it) of a puzzle piece with the anatomically correct heart in the middle, with the wordings "the missing piece" around the outer edges of the puzzle piece. Its sort of a thing about my past and the way i was forced to grow up.
Id like more too, but, stumped on ides.
